The engine also is so willing to rev and doesn't ever feel sluggish or slow to pick up. In my few times behind the wheel of other modern Trads, I have found he engines often needed to be rung out, or kept in the power band, to feel rapid but the Plus 4SS does not - it feels always on, without being a pain to drive in traffic, or sedately, when you simply don't want to, or can't, go fast.

A superb little car.


Ah! The joys of a variable cam engine. I wish I could get one in the Plus 4.
